WARNING
Extreme Hazard! Do not place rearward
facing infant seat in front of an active
air bag. Deployment of the air bag in an
accident could cause fatal injuries to the baby
regardless of the severity of the collision. It
is advisable to always carr y children in a child
restraint system on the rear seat , which is
the most protected position in the event of a
collision.
WARNING
Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a
rearward facing child restraint system, the
passenger side front airbag and side bag (for
versions/markets, where provided) must be
deactivated through the Setup menu.
Deactivation should be verified by checking
whether the
warning light is switched on in
the instrument panel.The passenger seat must
also be positioned back as far as possible in
order to avoid the child restraint system from
coming into contact with the dashboard.
WARNING
Do not adjust the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system.

AIRBAGThe car is equipped with front airbags for driver and
passenger, driver's knee bag (for versions/markets,
where provided), seat-mounted side airbags for
driver's and passenger pelvis-chest-shoulder
protection (for versions/markets, where provided),
and window airbags for protecting the heads of front
and rear outer occupants.
The location of the airbags on the car is marked by
the writing "AIRBAG" in the middle of the steering
wheel, on the dashboard, on the side trim or on
a label placed next to the airbag deployment area.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver/passenger airbags and the driver's
knee bag (for versions/markets, where provided)
protect the front seat occupants in the event of
frontal impacts of medium/high severity, by placing
the bag between the occupant and the steering
wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-deployment in other types of impacts
(side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not
indicate a system malfunction.
Front (driver and passenger) airbags are not a
replacement for, but are complementary to, the seat
belts, which you are recommended to always wear,
as specified by law in Europe and most non-European
countries.
In the event of impact, those not wearing a seat belt
are projected forwards and may come into contactwith the bag which is still inflating. The protection
offered by the bag is compromised in these
circumstances.
Front airbags may not activate in the following
situations:
❒frontal impacts against highly deformable objects
not involving the front surface of the car (e.g.
wing collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒underride impacts with other vehicles or wedging
under protective barriers (e.g. trucks or guard
rails).
Failure to activate in the conditions described above
is due to the fact that they may not provide any
additional protection compared with seat belts, so
their activation would be inappropriate.
In these cases, non-deployment of the airbag does
not necessarily indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dashboard
in the passenger airbag area, on roof side trims
or on the seats. Never put objects (e.g. mobile
phones) on the passenger side of the dashboard
since they could interfere with correct inflation
of the passenger airbag and also cause serious
injur y to the passengers.
